"Olympus announces development of Four-Thirds DSLR
Pre-Photokina 2008: Olympus has today announced the development of a new
Four Thirds system DSLR aimed at advanced amateur photographers. The
fabled ‘tweener’ is an addition to the range positioned between the E-3
and the E-520 models, and inherits a number of the E-3’s
professional-level features including its advanced high-speed 11-point
autofocus system, built-in image stabilization system with up to 5 stops
correction, and somewhat cryptically ‘a new and updated feature to
replace the current splash- and dust-proof function’. Olympus will be
exhibiting the camera at Photokina, and it is due to for release in the
first quarter of 2009."
